Why is coding important?

Posted by Bold Support on May 22, 2017

Without coding, you wouldn’t have spaceships, the internet, or the ability to tweet through your fridge. Everything in the digital age is built on code, so having digital skills is essential to understand the world around you. Businesses thinks so too - coding is the #1 sought after skill in employees. It’s super creative. It’s for animators, gamers, entrepreneurs, and makers. An estimated 2.3 million digital workers will be needed in the UK alone by 2020, and over half of jobs requiring coding aren’t even in software companies. So basically, it’s the new universal language that you need to know. Okay.
